    New Zeppelin spotted over SF

    Maybe this is what has kept Capt. Panache so busy these last few weeks:

    Pretty cool! I've seen that zeppelin in the sky a LOT over the past few months. I know all the views. It would be fun to take a ride...

    Are you sure that "our" crew could handle this craft,after all the controls look a bit more complicated than the ones we last saw them at?

    It is all 'fly by wire' - a single joystick and a few controls to slide and as long as the computer stays sane all is well - so it would have no chance ouside its own reality.

    Not only that, it is far too small, not even enough storage room for the Tanqueray, let alone the biplanes, the bombs and the submachine guns, plus that reliable coffee dispensing system which our own dear Saltire carries so dependably.

    You are so right there A the P, we can only assume that one of "theirs", rather than one of "ours", must up to no good. A covert reconnaissance, perhaps?

    Well - it is a true zepplin - made in Germany - ideal for taking photos from. Well spotted Jock.
